DO you mean add things for a graphical or gameplay perspective?

Both:
3) It is a "simple" map now (that's meant as refreshing )..but can't you think of some extra bonus gimmick ?
A landing station ? a crashed rocket site ? A vault with alien eyes peeking ?

agreed. A gameplay change I'd consider is adding a connection to make this map play more like a certain board game rather than just being a clone of the CC classic. As CC players may or may not know, the CC classic appears to have Kamchatka envy.

Check! In keeping with art deco theme I gave each circle a deco flourish. My concern is that maybe it's too much - don't want the map itself to get lost among all of the little graphics. Readability issues will be dealt with as we roll along.

My other concern is that the army numbers are going to get lost on those army circle colours.
